Eleven winners and three Honourable Mentions named at Wednesday night’s spectacular dinner and awards ceremony in Amsterdam
This year’s 10th anniversary Boat Builder Awards saw Gulf Craft’s Mohammed Hussein AlShaali honoured for Lifetime Achievement, IMPACD Yachts founder Marieke de Boer named as 2024 Rising Star, the Jakopin brothers commended as Designers of the Year, and boatbuilding companies and their supply chain partners from 15 countries celebrated for their striking achievements.
Amsterdam Maritime Museum’s starlit covered courtyard was once again the scene of much celebration as new history was made amongst the old. Guests were taken on a culinary and visual journey through several centuries of maritime and cultural development as they applauded winners of every size of business from start-ups to multi-nationals and every generation from apprentices to those with four decades of service to the industry.
